I've been out of the country and wasn't able to attend, I'm excited to see the show carry through the winter, most of the other shows aren't starting back up till March.

So I heard through the grapevine that the Brier Creek car show has been moved to two locations. One in Cary and another in Durham. There are facebook pages for both locations. I've been out of town so I can confirm the switch although there were pictures of the Durham event, although the cars weren't anything close to the usual suspects that I've seen in the past. Just keeping you guys in the loop
I have not made it to the one in Waverly yet, even though it's less than 3 miles from my house, but I understand it is usually quite packed with cars.

there was a great turn-out today; the place was packed.....
not much Benz presence however.....with the exception of the wolf, and an old, very cool 280.....something about that Benz had me standing there a while admiring it, that might be something for me in the future, and I have never been one for cars from the 60's......but that was very cool, to me
enough blab....
thanx for fookin' lookin'
the Masarati just HAD to park next to me huh...........
yes, it's a black series, made in 09, and not since!
I'm not a huge Vett fan, but this underhood was too cool

Wow, that 280 is a gem. Gotta love when a Maserati decides to park next to you. I had one that looked exactly like that park next to my recent W212 once, and my enthusiasm toward my cars presence and design was humbled. Hit my auto-ego quite a bit. Fortunately my Girl was waiting for me with lingerie on when I got home.

How many Merc owners you know that are members of this page? Can't we get them all together (or most of them) and have our own Merc meeting?
What I'm trying to say is, do we necessarily need the first Saturday of every month? I guess we can use a different day, or different location (just saying).
I am open to any day, any time.

I know a lot of folks are busy or sleeping in on Saturdays.
It's pretty awesome to see all the Vette guys and Pcar guys, Mustang guys, Charger and Challenger guys, BMW guys etc all parked together showing the unique differences in their cars....and plus the unity appeals to me as well......I'd be up for meets and drives too....
saw about 40 or 50 of the new Camero's in a convoy on the highway......that was pretty awesome!

Yeah, Sat was a waste. Stupid running event. I got there about 8 and hung up with some other vette owners down in the corner, but left not long after. Oh well, maybe next month.

SL 65 Black Series, Ferrari 458, Porsche Panamera GTS, SLS Black Series
Just read through some of the reecent postings. Just wanted to respectfully correct a few of the comments. The sticker on the SL Black was just a few coins shy of $300 K. Some went for a bit more if you were unfortunate enough to buy yours from a particularly arrogant dealer. The car you observed in Cary was delivered in San Diego , January 16 2009. It was, according to MB , the 1st North American delivery. There are less than a handful of red ones. There are no chips on the front. as was stated.
Of particular humor was the Ff posting. I own both the SL Black and the Pearl white 458. The childlike creature with the FF works for Ferrari and has a vast knowledge of the brand including mechanism of all of the cars in the Ferrari lineup! Would tend to believe what he says!
Would definatly be interested in an MB corner at C&C. Have an SLS Black Series scheduled to be delivered in August. Build begins tomorrow!
